T-Mobile G2x: Review

T-Mobile G2x is the latest smartphone introduced by LG but it landed on the US soil to be reborn as the G2x on T-Mobile. It offers physical keyboard for a 4-inch WVGA display with HDMI output and has an impressive 8 megapixel camera with 1080p video capture.

We have already reviewed LG Optimus 2x and we have found that there aren’t any major differences between the Optimus 2x and G2x as it has the same hardware. The only difference is the T-Mobile logo replacing the LG logo below the earpiece. The design of G2x is awesome and super build quality just like the Optimus 2x. T-Mobile G2x has a 1.3 megapixel front camera, proximity and light sensors and the four Android keys (menu, home, back, and search). Inside the T-Mobile G2x you will find NVIDIA’s 1GHz dual-core Tegra 2 as a processor with 512 MB RAM and a massive 8GB built-in flash memory.

In the end I must say that maybe Samsung Galaxy S 4G has a better display but you can’t underestimate the new LG Tegra 2 handset and you can’t even also deny the fact that the G2x is the “THE ONE” under T-Mobile- maybe until the HTC Sensation becomes available.
